Chapter 17: Conspiracy to Subvert (4)

Shen Jiannan said secretly: "Last night, Xue Yuhu said that he was about to become the prince, what is going on? Shangguan Wuxian can't have such great ability, there must be an ulterior secret in this, I must find out. With that, he quickened his pace and followed closely behind. This Xue Yuhu is also clever, and he is probably afraid of being followed, so he looks back from time to time, Shen Jiannan dodged very well, he was not discovered, and after about half an hour, he saw Xue Yuhu come to a place not too far from the capital, which was a military camp, and walked in with a swagger.

Shen Jiannan was so curious, and said in his heart: "The military camp is heavy, how can he go in and out casually." "But I'm not from the barracks, so it's impossible to get in, I just want to sneak in. Then he went around to the back, found a place where no one was, jumped in, and ran towards the room that Xue Yuhu entered.

Came to the outside of the tent and hid in a relatively hidden place, this is an alley, it can be said to be a dead end, pedestrians and guards will not notice this place at all, at the moment Shen Jiannan listened carefully to the sound inside. I only heard one of them say: "Xue Yuhu, I have a packet of medicine here, you take it and act according to our plan." The person who spoke was Cao Jixiang.

Xue Yuhu looked frightened, and said: "Gonggong Cao, can you make sure that nothing goes wrong, if there is a mistake, my little life will be gone." ”

"Go according to my instructions, it's definitely no problem, and besides, what are you afraid of, if something really happens, there will be my 30,000 brocade guards." Cao Jixiang seemed to be very sure of his words.

"But Gonggong Cao, the palace is heavily guarded, I'm afraid it's not so easy to get it." Xue Yuhu was still worried.

"Huh? Let you go, you will go, what so much nonsense, this operation, if it doesn't succeed, it will become a benevolent, everything is under my control. Cao Jixiang was angry at first, and then showed a smug look.

Xue Yuhu saw that Cao Jixiang seemed to be very sure, although he was still very worried, but he didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to agree hard, he was still very scared in his heart, if this thing was revealed, it would be a dead end, this time it is estimated that it is a desperate gamble, success or failure in this move, he has already tied his own, and he can't help but do it himself.

Shen Jiannan listened outside for a long time, but he didn't hear what he meant, and he wondered in his heart, and said to himself: "What kind of medicine did Cao Jixiang give to Xue Yuhu, and who did it give it to, and when they talked about the palace, did they ........." ”

When Shen Jiannan thought of this, he was shocked, and said to himself: "Could it be that they want to drug the emperor, these two people want to conspire to usurp the throne?" Thinking of this, I felt resentful in my heart, but I had already made a decision, and I saw Xue Yuhu walking out of the tent alone, with his head down, his steps were very heavy, obviously unwilling to do such a thing.

Shen Jiannan didn't know why Xue Yuhu got together with Cao Jixiang, so it was inconvenient to think about it at this time, so he hurriedly followed. Xue Yuhu went straight to the palace, and the guards along the way unconditionally allowed him to pass without hindrance. It looks like he's already bought off the guards everywhere. After entering the palace, Shen Jiannan is no longer convenient to follow, what can I do, there are so many guards, it is not easy to get in, Xue Yuhu has already entered, and I have to think of a way, otherwise the palace will be bad.

Shen Jiannan, flashing on the edge of the palace wall, was thinking hard about the plan to enter the palace, and it happened that Lord Xu Youzhen, who wanted to save him that day, was very happy at the moment, and hurriedly slipped to him, looked around and saw that no one had an idea, and hurriedly pulled Xu Youzhen aside. Xu Youzhen was startled at first, but before she could bear who this person was, she was dumbfounded and said, "This strong man, why did he block the way of this official?" ”

Shen Jiannan laughed in a low voice: "Why, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you forgot about it?" ”

"You....... You are.......... Xu Youzhen was still trying to think about who it was, but she just couldn't remember.

"It's no wonder, Lord Xu works for the court all day long, and his mind has already been all on government affairs, and it's natural that he doesn't know me, and it's Shen Jiannan below, Feiying Gorge saved the adult's life that day, I don't know if the adult remembers?" Shen Jiannan said with a smile.

"Ahh It turned out to be Shen Shaoxia, hey, the old man's head actually forgot his benefactor, he really should be beaten, he should be beaten. Xu Youzhen suddenly realized and smiled awkwardly.

"Shen Shaoxia, I don't know what you are doing in the palace?" Xu Youzhen then asked curiously.

"I am following a suspicious person, suspecting that he will be unfavorable to the emperor, so I want to ask Lord Xu to take me into the palace." Shen Jiannan said worriedly.

"What, someone wants to be unfavorable to the emperor, who is it?" Xu Youzhen asked in surprise.

"Now I can't say for sure, time is pressing, please take me into the palace quickly." Shen Jiannan urged.

Xu Youzhen was still hesitating, not knowing whether what Shen Jiannan said was true or false, and maybe he still had three doubts about his words, but he couldn't resist his repeated urging, and finally agreed.

Xu Youzhen asked Shen Jiannan to pretend to be his entourage, followed behind him, and came to the gate of the palace, the guard stepped forward to interrogate him, Xu Youzhen said a few words simply, the guard immediately let him go, and came to the palace, Shen Jiannan came in for the first time, and he couldn't find the southeast and northwest at all, I don't know where it is, or Xu Youzhen guided, so he knew the way.

"Shen Shaoxia, you go first, if I change, the old man will bring troops to help." Xu Youzhen made an impassioned statement.

"Thank you, Lord Xu, I'm going down." Shen Jiannan hurriedly said goodbye to Xu Youzhen and hurriedly came to the main hall.

Although he entered the palace, but according to his imagination, the palace was stricter than the guards outside the palace, Shen Jiannan had no acquaintances to guide him at this time, so he had to jump on the roof with light skills and look for Xue Yuhu on the roof. Fortunately, Xu Youzhen told the location of the hall just now, and it is very easy to find it.

After a moment, he fumbled around, and secretly leaned on the roof, carefully removed a tile, and looked down. I saw two people standing facing each other, one was wearing a dragon robe, it must be the emperor, the other was Xue Yuhu, and then looked around, there were only two palace warriors.

I only heard Yingzong ask, "Is there anything you have to do here?" ”

"Father, the child has been in the palace for many days, and has not been able to enter the body to be filial to you, today he brought a pot of good tea, please taste it, it can be regarded as a little filial piety of the child." Xue Yuhu said and sent the teacup in his hand to Yingzong.

Yingzong looked at it and said with a smile: "It's rare that my son has this mind, okay, I'll taste it." After saying that, he picked up the teacup and tasted it carefully.

After Yingzong finished drinking the tea, Xue Yuhu smiled and said, "Father, is this tea fragrant?" ”

"Yes, that's good." Yingzong smiled with satisfaction.

"Father, the child has been in the palace for a long time, why hasn't my father announced to the world that I am the prince."

Yingzong hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "This matter has to be considered in the long run, and it can't be reckless." ”

Xue Yuhu pondered for a moment, and then smiled: "Is my father worried that I, the prince, am fake?" ”

"Oh, no, I've already said that the prince has been missing for so many years, and he suddenly returned to the palace today, which makes it difficult for me and the ministers to accept it for a while, and I want to wait until everyone gets used to it before letting the world know." Yingzong said with a deep groan.

Xue Yuhu sneered: "Your Majesty, now is the time, it's better for you to tell the world immediately, let me become the prince as soon as possible, and you will have a successor." ”

Yingzong was puzzled for a moment, only to hear him say to himself, but he called the emperor, and his tone was not as kind as just now, and he asked in surprise: "Xue Yuhu, what do you mean by this?" ”

"What can I mean, I just want to ask the emperor to make me the crown prince." Xue Yuhu's tone began to be a lot tougher.

"What, it seems a little threatening to hear you?" Yingzong asked in shock.

"Haha, hahaha, you say a threat is a threat, no matter what, you have to promise this today, otherwise you .........." Xue Yuhu showed his fox tail and said with a sinister smile.

"What else would happen?" Yingzong looked angry and asked in confusion.

"Your Majesty, in the tea you drank just now, I gave the 'Death Pill' to you in less than one day, and you will return to heaven in less than one day, after you return to heaven, won't this throne be vacant, I should inherit it, besides, this antidote is only available to me, and no matter how good you are, the imperial doctor can't develop it." Xue Yuhu smiled wryly.

Yingzong said "ah", frightened, and then his expression was painful, as if he had a toxic attack, he gagged again and again, and said: "You are so despicable, who instructed you to do this?" ”

"No one instructed me, I just cooperated with Shangguan Wuxian of the Yin Yang Sect." Xue Yuhu couldn't stop laughing.

"Shangguan Wuxi, why haven't I heard of it, what are you going to do?" Yingzong asked cowardly.

"It's so direct, don't you understand, we want your throne." Xue Yuhu said it without hiding it at all, with a sinister smile on his face.

"You are so bold, I am the Ninety-Five, you dare to poison me, aren't you afraid that the guards outside will kill you?" Youngjong intimidated him.

Xue Yuhu immediately laughed and said, "Don't lie to me, the people outside have already bought it by me, if you don't believe it, you can call these two next to you to try." ”

Yingzong was shocked, and then called out to the two palace warriors: "What are you still standing for, if you can't come over, arrest this traitor for me." ”

The two people next to him didn't move, as if they had been pointed.

This time it scared Yingzong's soul away, and when he stumbled, he almost fell, and Huo Di sat on the steps, dejected.

Xue Yuhu looked at the joy of success and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't hesitate any longer, hurry up and write a holy decree." ”
